Fixing the foundations – property industry reacts to Budget

Curious about what the Budget means for the North? Want to debate procurement, devolution, transportation, and planning reform? Place North Question Time will discuss it all.

Tim Sedgewick will take on the leadership role at the Northern land and property agency on 1 November.

Chancellor Rachel Reeves and deputy prime minister Angela Rayner confirmed that the Budget will include funds to enable the delivery of up to 5,000 social homes, with further plans in place to reduce Right to Buy discounts and craft a five-year social housing rent settlement.

The global consulting firm will shine a light on its Northern projects at the international property convention, showcasing the schemes that are set to transform the region.

Hear from Mike Palin, Homes England’s executive director for markets, partners, and places, as well as Bradford Leader Cllr Susan Hinchcliffe, Liverpool Leader Cllr Liam Robinson, and Greater Manchester deputy mayor Paul Dennett at the 5 November event.

Place North is committed to being part of the skills shortage solution and championing a more diverse property industry, which is why we are working with Regeneration Brainery – a non-profit that helps bring more young people into the built environment.

Keir Starmer’s government will provide £68m to 54 councils nationwide in an effort to turn neglected land into homes.

For a second year in a row, DAY Architectural is partnering with Place North to help maximise its time at the global property convention in 2025.

Next year, Place North is doing MIPIM differently and will run the show’s first-ever exhibition stand dedicated to the North of England. Get a snapshot of what this could mean for you by listening to this podcast.
